Recently, on the MSNBC "Morning Joe" show, presumptive Republican Presidential nominee Donald Trump reiterated his desire to temporarily ban Muslims from entering the United States.
Why this fear of Islam and Muslims?
Liberal talk show host Bill Maher recently said that the more a person knows about Islam, the more he fears Islam.
The essence of Islam is to subjugate, oppress, forcibly convert or kill Kafirs (non-Muslims). This follows from the Islamic scriptures, the Koran, The Hadith (sayings and deeds of Mohammed), and the Sira (the biography of Mohammed). The Koran calls on Muslims to emulate Mohammed: the short paperback book "The Story of Mohammed" by Harry Richardson, which quotes repeatedly from Islamic Scriptures, is the easiest way for Kafirs to understand the essence of Islam. The book can also be read for free on the web.
Former Muslim M.A. Khan's book, "Islamic Jihad: A Legacy of Forced Conversion, Imperialism, and Slavery" describes the suffering inflicted on Kafirs by Islam. History tells us that Islam has killed 120 million Africans, 60 million Christians, 80 million Hindus and 10 million Buddhists. The present-day ongoing genocide of Christians, Yazidis and other Kafirs by the Islamic State, is but a continuation of the 1,400-year-old Islamic extermination of Kafirs.
The majority of Kafirs are blissfully unaware of the essence of Islam, and Islamic history. That is the reason many Kafirs do not fear Islam, when they should be very, very afraid. It is only when Kafirs are very afraid of Islam, as they should be, that they will take measures to defend themselves against Islam. The only solution is for Kafirs who have studied Islam, to educate other Kafirs about Islam.
Fear of Islam arising out of a study of Islamic scriptures and Islamic history is a completely rational fear, and cannot be termed "Islamophobia," a term that means an irrational fear of Islam.
So, Kafirs either have a completely rational fear OF Islam because they understand the essence of Islam and Islamic history, or, because of ignorance, they do not fear Islam.
Therefore, Islamophobia (irrational fear of Islam) does not exist.
Donald Trump cannot be an Islamophobe, as Islamophobia does not exist.

Ask Lee Rigby that.
Given its history, Islam is something to phobe about.
He is more of an
Islamorationalist: Someone who has rational concerns about the current state of Islamic culture and Islamic Politics.
Is Donald Trump an Islamophobe? And why is this a problem? Anyone in his right mind would have to be.
If you don’t love terrorists, you are an islamophobe.
The problem isn’t us, the problem is the Islamic terrorists who want to kill everyone else.
Are pretty much all Islamic countries Christiphobes?
I hope so.
I sure as hell am and proud of it.
Islam is a cult.
Trump’s a realist whose perceptions aren’t clouded by booze, drugs, or political correctness.
We all desperately hope so
Author nails it except I would describe a rational view of Muslims as not one of ‘fear’ but of ‘distrust’ as evidenced by the long history of their true intentions.
The author nailed that! Fear of Islam is the essence of clarity.
What is a completely rational fear of Islam called?
Somebody who doesn't kiss poison snakes? In that case, count me as one also.
Phobia is an IRRATIONAL fear. It’s totally rational to be afraid of lunatic muslim cultists who go around threatening to kill you. We are afraid but we are also prepared.
I’m not afraid of Islam. I just am educated about their actions and beliefs and know where and what they desire which is not in my best interests. I am not afraid of a rabid dog but I know how and what to do with them.
